January 15, 2011 Day 231 of Year long Journey

I weigh 206 pounds now. I have lost nineteen pounds in thirty weeks. This is two-thirds a pound a week. My initial goal is to become overweight, one hundred and seventy nine pounds, from obese. That means I must lose twenty seven pounds in twenty one weeks. That means I must lose one pound and one-third a pound each week. My stretch goal of normal weight will not be obtained by day 365 of my year long journey. I am an analytical person. Losing the total weight of my initial goal of forty six pounds will be an A, 100%. If I lose only forty two pounds, that will be a B.

I have focused more on eating healthy and tracking my food. I love my food processor used to make green smoothies most days. If I drink two green smoothies, diet power gives me an A plus in nutrition for the day. I have been at the gym three or four times a week for an hour of strenuous exercise. I even got back on wii fit after two years. I am looking forward to a long healthier life.
